Long time no write. Again, we have been very, VERY busy.

Our officiant cancelled on us but we were able to find a replacement right away. We have met with the florist and reception site to finalize details. Now we have a bunch of details to take care of. Currently, we are finishing up the invites...they will be sent out next week. We have had some bumps in the road but I think they'll turn out pretty nice.

We found an apartment in Michigan and will be moving there on June 23rd (yipee!).

We've been very busy with wedding stuff and non-wedding stuff as well! We are currently working on all the little details. We think we have found a tux shop to go with and now we just have to pick out the actual style of tux.... we are working on our invitations. They take a long time to do but I think it will be worth it!

I'm taking another trip to Michigan this week but most of my time will be occupied with school (I got into U of Michigan!) stuff and apartment searching (yuck!). Our last trip to Michigan will take place in May... we have to meet with the reception hall to finalize our menu, meet with the officiant to finalize our ceremony, meet with the florist to discuss flowers! It will be a fun-filled long weekend. :)

Stay tuned! The time is ticking away!

Our website is UP! Well, it has some errors and omissions... but you can at least take a look!

Well, we had a wedding planning extravaganza last week. We met with our baker and had a cake tasting...it was delicious! We have decided to have both a chocolate layer with ganache filling and a vanilla cake layer with raspberry. Yummy!

We also met with our wedding coordinator at the church. She was very helpful and went though what we should expect the day of our wedding. She covered a bunch of stuff...good thing I took notes!

Mike had a chance to go look at The Earle (where the Groom's dinner will be held). It looks very nice and I'm sure it will be very tasty!

I ordered most of my assessories last week and am happy with most of them. Now, I just have to figure out if I'm going to wear a necklace or not. I also have to decide what shoes I want to wear for the reception.

My Mom and I went shopping for Mother-of-the-Bride dresses. Some are hideous! Kitty (Mike's Mom) had suggested wearing black ... many mothers are doing so this day in age. So, they will most likely be wearing black. I think it will look very classy and it will make it easier for them to find a beautiful dress!

We are now working on the design and logistics of our invitations... we are making our own. I'm sure this will be quite a production... good thing I have nothing better to do!!! :)

This is old news but... we picked out the bridesmaid dresses! They are celedon (somewhat sage) with some beading over the bust. They will look great on Leah and Tinesha.

At least one more trip is planned to Michigan before June. I will HOPEFULLY be attending U of M's open house in late March. I will also be taking care of some wedding planning at this time. We need to make a trip in May as well to finalize details with the reception hall and the florist among other things. I hope we can swing it!

I think we are both starting to feel the stress associate with moving, changing jobs/schools, and getting married all in a matter of weeks! Wish us luck! Until next time...

We are still working on our website - it should be up and running by next week. Wedding planning was put on hold over the holidays so now we have to get going! We still have a bunch of things to do - mostly details.

Last week we booked our wedding day transportation - a '57 Thunderbird convertible. We aren't really limo people, so we thought this suited us. We will have the car for the whole weekend!

Tomorrow, Tinesha (my Bridesmaid) and I will be going bridesmaid dress shopping. I hope we find something! Going to the shops and looking at the endless rows of dresses always seems to be exhausting!!

I'll let you know how it turns out...
